Re: White. Jack White.

Shook his hand outside of the Third Man Records pop-up store thing, right after the mini-show the Dead Weather put on in L.A. just after seeing that switcheroo thing he did (where Little Jack dressed up as him and played piano and Jack White played bass on Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground). Best day ever.

Re: White. Jack White.

"Fly Farm Blues" sounds fantastic. It does remind me a lot of "Ball and Biscuit" as well as most of the songs from the White Stripes' self-titled album, but that's not a bad thing by any means. Jack White is my god and I love anything/everything he does, so...

Re: White. Jack White.

“Well, I have been approached [by] … Jack White. I’ve thought about doing it with him. He seems to be a fan but who knows. You never know what I might do. Every now and then I get offered those things, and I know if and when the time is right, I’m certainly not opposed to doing that. I usually have a set notion of where I’m headed with a certain project and what I want to get out of it. But Lord only knows what I might do when I get a chance to sit down and think about it.”

— Dolly Parton reveals (via Spinner) that she may soon join the likes of Loretta Lynn, Wanda Jackson, and The Black Belles as musicians who can say they have had their record produced by the legendary Jack White.

this would be an incredible collaboration. I LOVE DOLLY

I took my niece this year and it was her first Coachella. It was so fun to see it through her eyes. She thought it felt like a magical scene from Shreck. The one where all the fairy tale creatures meet for the first time in Shreck's swamp.

Re: White. Jack White.

Hopefully not that shitty rendition of We Are Gonna Be Friends that he and Meg did for Conans last show. Ugh.

Re: White. Jack White.

Jack White has a record label, Third Man, based in Nashville. He's also got a store in that same city that contains a photography studio, a live venue, a recording studio and a record press. Time to add four wheels to White's empire: Today, the Third Man Records Rolling Record Store made its maiden voyage to a parking lot in Austin, Texas.

The yellow-and-black truck is part record store, part recording studio. Jack White and I talked about the design of the truck, but we'll save that audio tour for another blog post, something we call The Flipside With Jack White. Stay tuned.

But let's cut to the chase: Jack White hopped out of the truck to perform two songs, one from Buddy Holly and the other, a White Stripes tune, "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground."

White also introduced a new Third Man recording artist, Seasick Steve, who appropriately played the blues on just three strings.

I have to say the crowd went crazy for White and Seasick Steve. There were some technical glitches when the amps seemed to overload and shut down, but it didn't take away any of the magic from this impromptu parking lot event.
